Popcorn (and M&Ms) Play-by-Play

Ok, I'm going to live blog this one. Sort of a play-by-play and see what happens. It's been hard for us to watch together, and watching solo is definitely not as fun. So maybe this post can simulate some sort of group watch feeling...or at least watching with me. Read along while you watch! Here we go...

Uh oh, Darrell is drinking. I saw the preview for this episode and it looks like this is the one where he punches someone. Put down the drink Darrell!

Susie the instigator...secretly wants a piece of Kelly Anne? Maybe she never had that crazy college lesbian experimental phase and is testing it out now.

Brad starting to realize finally that Casey has robbed him of money. Duh.

Now Brad's trying to protect his girl MVP Kelly Anne from losing her pretty little drunk head. Uh oh, drunk tears. Bound to happen.

Commercial...Jersey Shore promo. Think I'm gonna pass. New movie Ninja Assassin...how generic a movie title can you get for an Asian martial arts film. I think this would make a great group showing martial arts movie cliche drinking game. Who's in? New Moon promo...it's MTV, of course.

Back to the Ruins...KA is still crying for no reason.

Brad is starting to slur between swigs of wine. Trouble.

Oh no, this might be the moment. No Darrell, walk away. He's drunk. Don't stand up. They're just drunk words. Let him blow off steam. Shut up Darrell. Oh dammit. The punch.

Commercial! Gah! Ah, mini Ken Ober tribute, so sad. Found out recently that my coworker was on Remote Control and lost. I'm still bugging him to find the footage and put it online.

We're back. WTF Darrell! Holy cow, Brad's eye is swollen shut. Double elimination! Darrell, you dumbass! That was a $30,000 punch. It's all up to Kenny now for team Kennyhanna.

Now a bunch of bleeps coming out of Dunbar's mouth at Kelly Anne. Kelly Anne calls Dunbar a crazy psycho bitch. I do find it amusing when guys are called bitches. This is the dumbest fight ever though. This has the feel of one of those love-hate fights that end up in crazy make-up sex, but probably not this time.

Commercial...the Challenge goes to Acapulco and they need us! Jon, do it, do it! Now the new Matt Damon/Morgan Freeman movie Invictus. Seems a bit mature for the MTV audience, but we are watching so... Ah, Left 4 Dead 2 video game, that's more like it.

Susie is finally trying to dangle the power of her vote in front of the boy trifecta. Finally. The girls need to stop letting the boys run this thing. Where's Coral when you need her?

OMG...is this a fight about popcorn and M&Ms? This is getting ridiculous. I like popcorn too! Hilarity.

T-Mobile Sidekick time! Dunbar being sarcastic.

Oh look, more partying. Oh cute, Sarah and Kenny are flirting. Johnny is instigating! Do it do it. Go Sarah! Nice. Kenny does not kiss back. You suck Kenny.

It's Challenge deliberation time. Could this be the end of the boy trifecta? Johnny might be thrown under the bus here. What's Evan trying to pull?

The kids are doing some fence climbing thing. These have become the most boring parts of this show. Get back to the drinking, fights, and drama! Wait, what is Derrick doing? Is this some sort of strategy?

FF through the commercials. It's Casey time. She's crying, big surprise. Can't there be a Casey friendly challenge that involves saying stupid things, drinking, and taking your clothes off? Give the girl a chance to win something. Casey's taking about 1 hour to hit the gong.

The Champions win again. No surprise. Johnny seems nervous he will get called in.

The team gives Kim to Susie. Seems like a fair compromise since they won't put Casey in, but also won't put the tough Kelly Anne in. I still think it's crap that they've been sexist about the whole process this whole time with the guys being able to call out their man, while with the girls, it's a group vote. Why did the girls stand for this?

Johnny's trying to throw Kenny in. My last player! Someone shut Johnny up. He needs to go home. How has Johnny been able to manipulate this game?

More Jersey Shore and some forgettable movies.

Oh good, Susie and Derrick see through the bullshit. Johnny's going in. My Kenny is safe! Yay!

The rain is pouring. This is gonna be good. Finally, a physical contact Ruins. Some last minute trash talking from the ladies. Ooh, body slam. C'mon Susie. Oops, some accidental sexual position.

TO BE CONTINUED?! Oh no they didn't!!! What the hell!

I guess with all these players leaving for fighting or boob popping, they needed to stretch out the episodes. Sigh. I didn't realize there was an After Show, so I didn't record it. Oh well. Thanks for watching with me!
